Tiger Beer: Keys

“Cargo is securely locked. Crew have no access to keys. The Far East’s most desirable export since 1932″

Tiger Beer: Paint

“Warning: Anti-climb paint. The Far East’s most desirable export since 1932″

Tiger Beer: Overnight

“No Tiger Beer left onboard overnight. The Far East’s most desirable export since 1932″


Hokusai, Nice sample and use of Japanese print style.

I like this campaign. It breaks the typical beer-advert mould. But I think the lines could have been a little more polished. Are these 3 ads practically the same?

As opposed to other goods on all other ships these days where its ‘help yourself to our stuff’ kind of thing?

“Think for yourself. Metro. Just facts”

Ignorance cannot be portrayed any simpler. Really thought-provoking, the best thing about the campaign is the simple, reality-driven, and jazz-free photography. I am not saying this is not heavily retouched. In fact that is why it looks so clean and simple.

This could be a swastika in the spray shot. That is probably the idea but I thought it was a letter ‘F’ from first glance. Also in the ‘salute’ shot, look like the Sieg Heil to me.

Ok lets bring it all together, you should not pray? Or you have to think before you do that. If you do pray, you don’t be a Nazi (see above, well maybe it’s a letter ‘F’) Just freaking think for yourself dam it.

This campaign has a great idea but it’s loaded with so many problems if you start thinking about it. So don’t think for yourself too hard. Hmmmm Ok ok, lets start again, do what you want; do not listen what people and advertising tells you to do, hmmmm, oh forget it. Just look at nice pictures. Why do I feel so George Bush right now.

That’s a good campaign! So simple, clean & smart.

Its simple and beautiful.

Very smart; almost a fresh idea, now that is new! But the line needs work, or perhaps it a bad translation to English. The ad is from Bangkok, Thailand.

Also the visuals are really well treated, moody, warm and quite rich. Quite travel editorial with that little bit of subtle detail for the ad to work, not bad. I do absolutely love the lighting in the firs shot, the other two are good but the feel too burned in and dirty.

Late in 2007, Benetton began documenting the progress of the loan recipients through the images of photographer James Mollison. Mollisons photos spotlight a diverse group of entrepreneurs who’ve received the loans.

In keeping with Benettons commitment to social advocacy, the images are featured on billboards and print ads in the company’s new “Africa Works” global communications campaign. Benetton hope is that these everyday people will become tangible symbols of an Africa that uses the dignity of work to fight poverty and take back responsibility for creating its own future.

This is quite a fantastic and extensive campaign. It is really interesting how a company like Benetton spends indirectly a good sum of money to promote themselves indirectly. This has three benefits, one: interesting advertising for the company, two: benefit to people who needs it and of course a tax write-off for the Benetton’s accounting department. I think the work really is quite fantastic.

Well post processed shots with really well cart and finally edited characters. I would personally added a lot more location wise to make each shot a really lasting story, but perhaps that is not Benetton style.

Here are some behind the set shots form the above productions:

Semorin, A clean tie attracts the soup of the day

Semorin: Soya sauce
“Never underestimate the power of Semorin”

Semorin: Wine

Semorin: Mustard

Semorin: easy off, clothes stains remover. That’s if you went cool what is it all about. Have to admit even though the backgrounds are quite boring the strong colours are effective.

Nice over the top liquid splashing, I assume put together in post. I do like a silly campaign shots sometimes, quite dirty too. I sometimes like dirty images but … keep your mind out of my gutter!

Simple and straight to the point. Great colors.

Deutsch: Bed

Deutsch: Dog

Deutsch supposed to be an “International lifestyle magazine from Germany”. Probably this will do well in German because it was made by Jung von Matt.

A lucky dog’s life, shocking. I like it. I envy the dog alright. I guess this supposed to draw controversy and make people talk about the magazine. Go shock-tactics! Generally I hate cheap shock visuals for attention, but this is kina cool, and it’s not all that boring. All a plus in my mind. Plus, on the shocking scale – this is not that shocking.

Land Rover Defender, Politicians promise to build bridges even when there are no rivers.

Land Rover Defender: Bridge

Nice copy, not a bad concept. Urban setting for essentially a gas guzzling off road vehicle: Land Rover Defender. For all the owners that drive one to the office on lovely paved roads. Then park in an undercover garage so no bird poops on the hood, lame! Actually I am one of these people. Dam it!

Land Rover’s story is one of conquering a mountain peak. This tells the story of using a bridge as a ramp. Both stories are analogies for certain brand benefits.

Looks quite nice.
